These always come from different people at different addresses, never the same email address twice. Subject of email obviously taken from old emails. Messages identified as spam.
I am unable to block these email messages and they are becoming a real problem.

Horaayy..there are 4 comment(s) for me so far ;)
Unfortubately this is what the internet has become. Just like the piles of junk mail every morning through your door we have spam on the internet.
If leaflets were as cheap as e-mails then you would probably get the same ones through your door 3 times a day!!
Just be grateful that less trees are being needlessly wasted this way.
Sooner or later there will be a recognised and effecive authority to deal with this growing irritation… Till then its grin and bear it i’m afraid.
Try clearing your internet history and cookies in case they are a cookie driven cgi auto-mailing scripts.
First, turn on your spam protection.
Click on “Options from the upper right of your in-box.
Click on “Spam Protection”. Fill out the form and click “Save Changes”.
While in this form you can choose from two options under: “For messages Spam Guard Plus Identifies as Spam:
1. Immediately delete upon receipt or
2. Save these messages in the Bulk folder for 1 week.
I’ve had mine sent to bulk folder so I can check to make sure a good message didn’t get blocked, but it’s always spam so I always delete it from there.
Now, for all the spam messages in your in-box now, put a check mark by them, go to the top and click “Spam”.
You could filter out the mails into a folder by placing the filter that searches for the Word “Viagra” in the subject field. Then you could redirect these mails into an unwanted folder or into the spam folder.
Yeah, big guy, you don’t look like you need Viagra.
While you’re on the “spam protection” page (as previous post suggested)–make sure box is checked that says—”send to the blocked folder”. Thereafter they will be deleted AND blocked from future mailings.
Filtering would probably work better in this case.
Options—scroll to –filters. Fill in the blanks with specific words–especially Viagra—and then choose folder to send to—such as trash, or ??. Click “add filter”. Good luck.
